Public bug reported:
I have my account at a web hosting provider mounted via sshfs. If I only
use fusermount to mount and unmount, everything works perfectly. I
thought I'd use fstab instead and added the line
sshfs#nullinfinity.org: /home/jbr/Desktop/nullinfinity fuse user,noauto
to /etc/fstab. I can then still mount my account using "mount
/home/jbr/Desktop/nullinfinity" and access my files normally.
BUT: when I try to unmount the account using "umount
/home/jbr/Desktop/nullinfinity" the umount goes haywire:
$ ps auxw |grep umount |wc -l
269
$ ps auxw |grep umount |wc -l
bash: pipe error: Too many open files in system
bash: start_pipeline: pgrp pipe: Too many open files in system
$
Now there's lots of disk activity and the OOM killer starts killing
random processes. If I do Ctrl-C on the umount process quickly enough, I
can recover. But sometimes the only thing that helped was a hard
poweroff.
This is with fuse-utils 2.7.2-1ubuntu1 on Hardy/amd64 and kernel
2.6.24-5.8-generic. I've also tried running the system with the Feisty
kernel and the same thing happened.
